Triangle L M N is cut by line segment O P. Line segment O P goes from side M L to side M N. The length of O L is 14, the length

of O M is 28, the length of M P is y, and the length of P N is 18.
Which value of y would make O P is parallel to L N?

Answer:

The value of y that would make O P parallel to L N = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a question on similar triangles. Find attached the diagram obtained from the given information.

Given:

The length of O L = 14

the length of O M = 28

the length of M P = y

the length of P N = 18

Length MN = MP + PN = y + 18

Length ML = MO + OL = 28+14 = 42

For OP to be parallel to LN,

MO/ML = MP/PN

MO/ML = 28/42

MP/PN= y/(y+18)

28/42 = y/(y+18)

42y = 28(y+18)

42y = 28y + 18(28)

42y-28y = 504

14y = 504

y = 504/14 = 36

The value of y that would make O P parallel to L N = 36

The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is p = 2a + b. Find the numerical value of a if p = 10 and b = 3.
bagirrra123 [75]
P = 2a + b
10= 2a + 3
2a = 10-3
a = 7/2 = 3.5


Therefore, numerical value of a is 3.5
